The characteristics are that the central leaflet of the three has a very short stalk - no longer than the two either side. In T. dubium this central stalk is noticeably longer. Also T.micranthum has very few florets in the flowerhead - generally 1-4.
It is an uncommon plant in Staffordshire but countrywide it appears to be spreading northwards.
